<p>I’ve met a Teo Eng Seng (Mister) recently - yesterday afternoon - and when
|
|
|
|
|
he asked me, “how many Singaporean artists do you know”, with ‘Singaporean’
|
|
|
|
|
defined as ‘working in Singapore’, I realised I was stumped for an answer
|
|
|
|
|
beyond a handful of names (not much more than a couple of them); more names
|
|
|
|
|
came to me after the moment of interrogation had passed. Well, for the benefit
|
|
|
|
|
of whoever’s interested, I make a table below, in response to Mr. Teo Eng Seng’s
|
|
|
|
|
question.</p>
